A Holiday Memory

Thanksgiving
Last summer, I went to New York for Thanksgiving. I went up there to visit my family and spend time with them. I love seeing my family in New York because I only get to see them about 2 or three times a year. My grandmother made a wonderful meal including, turkey, stuffing, a salad, and a lot of other things. Other then the wonderful food we had, it was fun to just catch up with my family. After the huge Thanksgiving dinner, we all watched a movie together and digested all of the food we had which was also fun to just relax while we watched a great movie.
